Astravue MCP Server

The Astravue MCP Server is a cloud-based bridge between your Astravue workspace and compatible AI tools. Once configured, it enables those tools to interact with your spaces, projects, tasks, time entries, and custom fields in real time. All actions are authenticated via OAuth 2.0 and respect the user's existing access controls.

With the Astravue MCP Server, you can:

Search and browse spaces, projects, and tasks without switching tools.
Create and update tasks, subtasks, checklists, and comments through natural language.
Track time with live timers or manual entries and generate timesheet reports.
Manage custom fields including dropdowns, dates, currencies, and more.
Automate workflows like sprint planning, status reporting, and bulk task updates.

It's designed for project managers, developers, and teams who use AI-powered IDEs or assistants and want to manage work without context switching.

claude mcp add --transport http astravue-mcp https://api.astravue.com/mcp

Your browser will open automatically. Sign in with your Astravue account and click Approve.

To confirm the connection, run /mcp in a new Claude Code session. You should see astravue-mcp listed with a green connected status.

Share connection across a project team

Add the --scope project flag to create a .mcp.json file in your project root:

claude mcp add --transport http --scope project astravue-mcp https://api.astravue.com/mcp

Commit .mcp.json to your repository so teammates automatically get the connection.

Claude Desktop

Requires a Claude Pro, Max, Team, or Enterprise plan.

Go to Settings → Connectors in Claude Desktop.
Click Add custom connector and enter: https://api.astravue.com/mcp
Sign in with your Astravue account in the browser and click Approve.

Manual config file setup (advanced)

If Connectors is not available in your Claude Desktop version, edit:

macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "astravue-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.astravue.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Save the file and restart Claude Desktop.

Claude.ai (Web)

Requires a Claude Pro, Max, Team, or Enterprise plan.

Go to claude.ai → Settings → Connectors
Click Add connector and enter: https://api.astravue.com/mcp
Sign in with your Astravue account in the browser and click Approve.

Claude Mobile (iOS / Android)

Claude Mobile uses the same connector ecosystem as Claude.ai.

Add the connector on Claude.ai (web) or Claude Desktop first — it will automatically appear on your mobile app. No separate setup needed.

Cursor

Go to Cursor Settings → Tools & MCP
Click New MCP Server — this opens your mcp.json file
Add the following configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "astravue-mcp": {
      "url": "https://api.astravue.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Save the file. Your browser will open — sign in with your Astravue account and click Approve.

Project-level configuration

Create a .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root with the same config above. This scopes the connection to that project only.

VS Code

Add a .vscode/mcp.json file to your project root:

{
  "servers": {
    "astravue-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.astravue.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Open Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P on macOS, Ctrl+Shift+P on Windows), run MCP: List Servers, and click Start next to astravue-mcp.
Authenticate with your Astravue account in the browser.

User-level configuration (all projects)

Add this to your User Settings (JSON):

{
  "mcp": {
    "servers": {
      "astravue-mcp": {
        "type": "http",
        "url": "https://api.astravue.com/mcp"
      }
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Open the Windsurf MCP config file:
- macOS / Linux: ~/.codeium/mcp_config.json
- Windows: C:\Users\[username]\.codeium\mcp_config.json
- Or go to Settings → Tools → Windsurf Settings → Add Server
Add the following:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "astravue-mcp": {
      "serverUrl": "https://api.astravue.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

If you already have other servers in your config, add astravue-mcp alongside them inside the existing mcpServers object — don't replace the entire file.

Reload Windsurf and authenticate with your Astravue account.

Cline

Click the Cline icon in the VS Code sidebar → click the menu (⋮) in the top right → select MCP Servers.
Go to the Remote Servers tab and fill in:
- Server Name: astravue-mcp
- Server URL: https://api.astravue.com/mcp
- Transport Type: Streamable HTTP
Click Add Server. Your browser will open — sign in and click Approve.

Manual JSON configuration

Click Configure MCP Servers in the Configure tab to open cline_mcp_settings.json and add:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "astravue-mcp": {
      "url": "https://api.astravue.com/mcp",
      "type": "streamableHttp"
    }
  }
}

JetBrains (IntelliJ, WebStorm, PyCharm, etc.)

Go to Settings → Tools → AI Assistant → Model Context Protocol (MCP)
Click Add → Select Streamable HTTP → Paste:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "astravue-mcp": {
      "url": "https://api.astravue.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Click OK, then Apply. Sign in with your Astravue account in the browser.

Gemini CLI

Copy gemini-extension.json from this repository to your Gemini CLI extensions directory, or add the server URL to your Gemini MCP configuration.

Other MCP Clients

For any client that supports Streamable HTTP + OAuth 2.0:

Setting	Value
Server URL	`https://api.astravue.com/mcp`
Transport	Streamable HTTP
Authentication	OAuth 2.0 (Authorization Code + PKCE)

SSE-only clients (mcp-remote bridge)

If your client only supports SSE transport, run:

npx -y mcp-remote@latest https://api.astravue.com/mcp

Point your client to the local mcp-remote process instead of the Astravue URL.

How It Works

Astravue MCP exposes workspace operations as tools that AI assistants can call. Each tool performs a specific action in your Astravue workspace such as creating projects, managing tasks, logging time, or retrieving reports.

When an AI assistant receives a request, it selects the appropriate tool based on the user's prompt and executes it with the required parameters.

Authentication: All tools require an active authenticated session. If a tool call fails with 401 Unauthorized, reconnect your AI client to refresh your session.

Destructive actions: Some tools perform destructive actions such as deleting tasks, projects, or spaces. Most AI clients require confirmation before executing these operations. Always review actions before approving them.

Permissions

Astravue MCP respects the same role-based access control as the Astravue web app. Every tool call is executed as your authenticated user with your existing permissions. You cannot access or modify anything through MCP that you cannot access in the app.

Organization Roles

Role	MCP Access
Account Admin	Full access to all spaces, projects, and tasks across the organization
Admin	Full access to all spaces, projects, and tasks across the organization
Manager	Can manage spaces and projects they are a member of
Member	Can read and write within spaces and projects they belong to
Guest	Read-only. Cannot perform any write operations through MCP

Space-Level Permissions

Action	Required Role
List spaces, view space details	Space Member
Create, update, delete a space	Org Admin or Manager

Project-Level Permissions

Action	Required Role
List tasks, view project details	Project Member
Create or update tasks	Project Member
Add project members, delete project	Project Admin
Manage custom fields, statuses	Project Admin

Task-Level Permissions

Action	Required Role
View tasks, comments, checklists	Project Member
Create tasks, add comments, log time	Project Member
Delete a task	Task Owner, Task Creator, or Project Admin
Delete a comment	Comment Creator or Org Admin

If a tool call returns 403 Access Denied, it means your account does not have the required role for that action. Contact your workspace admin to update your permissions.

Example Workflow

A user asks an AI assistant:

"Create a new sprint called Sprint 5 and add tasks for login, payments, and API docs."

The AI assistant may execute these tools:

astravue_create_project — creates the Sprint 5 project
astravue_bulk_create_tasks — creates the three tasks in one call
astravue_update_task — sets priorities or due dates as needed

This allows complex project setup to be completed from a single conversation.

Data and Security

All traffic is encrypted via HTTPS using TLS 1.2 or later.
OAuth 2.0 authentication ensures secure access control.
Data access respects your workspace role and project-level permissions.
The MCP server never stores credentials — authentication is handled per session.

For more details, see SECURITY.md.

Rate Limits

Astravue MCP enforces rate limits to ensure platform stability.


Requests per user per minute	100
Bulk task create limit	100 tasks per call

If the limit is exceeded, the server returns HTTP 429 Too Many Requests. Wait 60 seconds before retrying.

Troubleshooting

Authentication fails or browser does not open

Sign out of Astravue at app.astravue.com, sign back in, then reconnect your AI client.

401 Unauthorized error

Your OAuth session expired. Reconnect your client to trigger a new sign-in flow.

Tools not appearing in my AI client

Ensure your client supports Streamable HTTP transport. Clients that only support SSE must use the mcp-remote bridge (see Other MCP Clients).

Connection drops after some time

OAuth tokens expire periodically. Your client should refresh automatically. If it does not, reconnect once.

FAQ

Do I need a paid Astravue plan?

No. Astravue MCP works on all plans including free.

Can multiple team members connect their AI clients?

Yes. Each user authenticates with their own Astravue account.

What permissions does Astravue MCP have?

Astravue MCP only has access to resources your account already has permission to access. All actions are performed as your authenticated user.

Can I use an API key instead of OAuth?

No. OAuth 2.0 is required so every action is tied to an authenticated user.

Will the AI make changes without asking me?

Most AI clients ask for confirmation before executing write operations. Check your client's tool approval settings.
